Abstract:
Lung nodule detection is one of the most important goals of large scale screening of chest radiographs. The success of nodule detection can be increased if it is possible to suppress the bony structures from the chest radiographs. While one possible way to do this is to use dual-energy imaging, most of the commercial X-ray machines do not offer this technology. Finding an alternative approach is an important task. This paper proposes a new solution for it, where first the contours of bones -espe...     »
